What
is an Activity Audit
All successful organisations have financial audits, but very
few have audits of their operational performance or Activity
Audit.
The SMT Group is suggesting
your organisation contracts SMT to perform an independent
review of your activities and as part of the Audit we will
make suggestions for 'improvements'.
With the experience SMT has, we feel we can add effectiveness
and efficiencies to your organisation. |

Benefits
The suggestions in the Audit/Review will be based on The SMT
Groups experience in the industry and will be independent
of any funders.
You would be contracting the potential for improvements.
So many Audits are carried out by people or Consultants, who
have little or no specific Industry experience, not to mention
Industry successes.
The following areas of your organisation will improve as the
result of the audit. |

living.

The PRESENT CLIMATE
There are so many questions groups regularly ask themselves. |

|
|

Are we frightened of Excellence?
We are in the age of accountability and while, for a few,
it is tempting to go overboard, the whole accountability issue
can be turned into a positive while adding to productivity.
The modern way is for contracts to clearly identify the responsibilities
of the respective parties.
Therefore we are judged on our ability to achieve the targets
in the contract.
If we are to succeed we must have appropriate systems and
processes in place.
To assess whether one has adequate systems and processes,
or even to assess whether they are working efficiently, some
sort of independent review is one way of answering this concern.
Often it is difficult for people inside our organisation to
recognise how it can work more effectively.
What's the use of running if we are running in the wrong direction?
IMPORTANT
Do not wait until there is a crisis.
Activity reviews should be performed on a regular basis by preferably
the same people so the Auditors get to know your business better
each year.
Independent, confidential reviews are designed for reflection,
acknowledgment of what you are doing well, and to take a look
at improvements for the future. |
